Procurement Systems Manager
Band 4
Job overview
The three Partner Trusts have set an objective of creating a single procurement function which will help support the sustainable provision of clinical and non-clinical services. A newly formed Humber & North Yorkshire Procurement Collaborative, hosted by Hull University Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, will provide procurement and supply chain services to its Partner Trusts, and may extend over time to service other bodies within the Integrated Care System.
You will work as a Systems Manager across all Partner Trusts supporting the implementation of a one single procurement system across all three trusts and managing these systems on an ongoing basis to ensure data integrity. As a credible data management professional you will provide advice and guidance to buyers and suppliers to ensure the systems are always up to date.
Please note that this advertised vacancy does not meet the UKVI eligibility requirements for a Skilled Worker Visa and therefore HUTH would not be able to issue a Certificate of Sponsorship for this role.
Main duties of the job
You will ensure IM&T information is processed in accordance with policies and procedures and investigate enquiries and queries from stakeholders, providing assistance and advice as required. You will need to adapt the system software, information reports, maintain and interpret datasets to support the analysis of spend data. Will provide training to Procurement and non-procurement colleagues across the Trust to ensure systems are being used correctly.
You will manage the performance of Systems Support staff and will actively support them in meeting their own development needs and aspirations.
